Mornin’ all
This week has been a week of challenges… to say the least…ha ha ha!!!
But we had to ask ourselves ‘why’ we were bringing these challenging experiences to ourselves. And the conclusion we came to, was that it is time to stand up for ourselves!!!
You see, most people see Reiki as a ‘hands on healing therapy’ done by very nice people 
Some might even call the Reiki therapist a healer
And healers by nature are touchy-feely people We love to rub it better, like Mum used to do.
We love to hug you better and keep you safe, like Mum used to do.
We love, protect and care for you when you are at your most vulnerable…
When you’re weak and sick, either emotionally or physically.
BUT… in steps big brother and now you have to have certificates galore to prove you are a healer.
In fact, in some places, YOU cannot even say you are a healing sort of a person.
You have to become a Reverend, in America, to be allowed to touch someone…
…which, to me, is very strange as it’s tantamount to saying it’s okay to become a fake minister and touch people but YOU cannot touch another human being, with compassion, without a stranger’s permission!!!
As if all these pieces of paper prove anything…
Every single day in a myriad of small ways we give our power away to someone else. We are constantly told that someone else, who doesn’t know us or the circumstances, knows what is best for us and those concerned.
Call me old fashioned but in the past you got the reputation for healing by healing people and word spread around.
Often the healer had no qualifications to speak of but did have a natural TALENT to make you feel better.
Just like the man who loves to fix cars or the gardener who truly has green fingers.
Your TALENT is yours and you either have it or you don’t.
We can all heal, just like any Mum can, but those who have a bigger, more powerful ability should be allowed to do what they are drawn to do…
That is why they have the TALENT in the first place… to use it to help others in distress.
My hands are my ‘tools of my trade’… no-one can take them from me or tell me what I can or can’t do with them.
My words are also the ‘tools of my trade’ and I do believe in freedom of speech.
I have the human right to say what I like.
If I, or anyone, offends you, then move away.
And YOU have the same rights too.
Speak up for yourself.
Follow your heart!!!
YOU KNOW what your natural talent is… so USE IT!!!
It is difficult enough to create health and happiness when we have to eat chemicals, breathe pollutants and kill each other on command.
Maybe the Witchfinder General is not dead… HE’S RIGHT BEHIND YOU!!!
Now, in a recent interview I was asked about the Reiki Warrior Healer.
And, to me, The Warrior is the other side of the Healer.
I wrote this because I was inspired by a Vietnam veteran…
Jim-san
For I am Samurai…
My body, holds all memory both personal and collective…
For we are one and the same…
To deny one, is to deny the other.
The fire in my spirit comes from the courage of the Warrior.
The power of my action is driven by the fearlessness of the Warrior.
The compassion of my heart comes from the peace giving Warrior.
The depth of my understanding comes from the knowing of the Warrior.
The joy of my life comes from the sorrow of the Warrior.
The LOVE in my life comes from the pain of the Warrior.
For I am Samurai… For I am the HEALER.
I love, whole heartedly, the spirit that is my Warrior.
I honour, without question, the spirit that is my Warrior.
I respect, beyond doubt, the spirit that is my Warrior.
For I am Samurai… For I am the Healer.
For I am FREEDOM …
Find your Samurai and find your peace within…
Find your Samurai and find your balance…
For you are Samurai… For you are Healers.
With deep love and affection for all you Warrior/Healer spirits.
